My chances for LBS MFA & other finance masters
I come from a science background at UCL. Having decided to transition into a career in finance, I am planning on applying to a few finance masters in the UK.
I have no finance internships, only business strategy intern at a pharma company. I have a strong GMAT (gmat focus 745), and graduated with a first honours. I come from an international background + unique experience (military). What are my chances for LBS MFA, Oxford MFE, LSE/Imperial finance masters?
With that GMAT and degree/uni brand combination, strong chances at pretty much any of these. Lack of relevant experience will hurt you during recruiting, though.
yep :( willing to work my ass off just to get into IB ! Thanks :)

Best odds at Ox, LSE with the GMAT and strong undergrad. LBS MFA a bit harder without the work experience but they may take well to the military exp?
And as mentioned recruiting will be tough. You haven't told us what exactly? IB? Other? IB might be tough but something more quanty out of the MFE could be in your ball-park...or consulting would like the finance/science combo. You've got to be very precise on your goals both so you are not wasting your own time and second to really nail your apps.
well my goal is to join the healthcare industry group of an IB, whether that be at a BB or boutique (CVP). I do recognise this as extremely difficult. Is there any way to boost my profile? thanks a lot for your input!
